258 Miles And Now will not start
« on: June 15, 2014, 01:32:43 AM »
2013 Kymco Like 200I
Went to start my bike today and the red light would not light up and it would not start. 
Any ideas what I should check first?
Thanks

Does the headlight come on when you turn on the key?
Does the rear brake light come on after turning on the key and squeezing the brake lever?
Is the KILL switch in the proper position to let the scoot start and run?
Do you hear the fuel pump activate for a few seconds after you turn the key on?
Please let us know ....also, is this your first scooter?

Is the starter turning over? Stig do these have side stand kill switches?

No, even though most of our owners manuals say they do. There is none down there.

My kill switch got bumped to the off position.
I usually only use the key so it threw me.
Fortunately only issue was the flick of a switch.

As always... the important thing is No one was seriously hurt.
These close calls are becoming all to frequent.

I feel so much better now. I did the same thing on my Like a few months ago.

Enjoy your Like and ride safe, mscmkr
